Abstract:
Aim: The aim of this study is to estimate the age of a person by using the ratio between the crown root trunk height (CRTH) and the pulp chamber height. (PCH) Objective: To develop an independent procedure for estimating age for Indian individuals using radiographs of multi- rooted posterior teeth. Background: Age estimation has to be done in both living and dead individuals for legal procedures, to identify victims during mass disasters, and for anthropological studies. Age estimation in children can be done by studying the stages of tooth development and eruption. The size of the pulp chamber reduces as the chronologic age advances. Thus, determining age based on the age changes in pulp chamber height is a noon- invasive method which can be used to determine the age of a patient. Reason: After third molar development, it becomes increasingly difficult to assess age accurately. Only aging process and regressive changes can help in age estimation.
